2011 – present, at the record's strength

No "first woman" in any North Liberty office is stated by any carrier reached — but the modern holding record is women's, and it prints exactly. Vicki Kitchen has held the clerk-treasurership of the town continuously in the reached record back to at least September 2012, and holds it in November 2026 on the town's own Departments page and the State Board of Accounts' 2024 schedule — the longest-documented tenure of any town officer in this build. In the township, Sue Dittmar was Liberty Township Trustee in 2011, answering a Public Access Counselor opinion in that office, and had left it by 2025 on a salary compilation's labeling; Emily Dittmar stood as the sole, uncontested candidate for the trusteeship on the 3 November 2026 ballot, for the term beginning 1 January 2027 — printed as candidacy, not holding, under the government file's discipline. Whether Kitchen or Dittmar was the first woman in her office is stated by no source reached; both firsts bank as named gaps whose settlers are the offices' full succession lists in the county record. No woman candidate for the town council is named in the reached rosters of 2014–2026, a statement about the rosters reached, printed at that size.
